Kevin Ayers: Stranger in Blue Suede Shoes
Time for some more Kevin Ayers.
This track from his album Whatevershebringswesing was relesed as a single in 1971 and again in 1976, but failed to chart both times.
Mind you, I wish I had had someone to develop my musical taste in those days. Poverty and ignorance meant I had to rely on wonderful Radio One for my music.

Jonathan, This is final and conclusive proof that we are one and the same person:

Well, you never see us in the same room together do you? ;-)
You may well be on to something.
